Notes

You can use frozen shell-on or peeled shrimp that has been deveined. Frozen shell-on shrimp does tend to be a little juicer.
If using defrosted shrimp, reduce the time until shrimp is fully cooked
Make a foil sling around the container so that it is easy to remove from the air fryer.
I prefer jumbo shrimp in this recipe but any size will work. Smaller shrimp cook faster so keep an eye on them.
